Muhammadu Buhari

Nigeria Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo said that, President Buhari is presently under intense pressure to stop his administration’s ongoing anti-corruption war.

According to a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Mr. Laolu Akande, on Thursday, the Vice-President spoke while granting audience to a delegation from the Muslim Congress of Nigeria at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

He stated…

“We get regular messages from some Nigerian elite saying ‘cool down.’

“It is a very strange morality that some of those people have, (which is) very complicated, and cutting across all tribes and religious differences.”

“The man on the street is very clear; so whatever some of these elite say, we shall keep our focus on the masses who voted for us,” the vice-president declared.

“The insurgency has gone on for six years because government could not adequately equip the military,” he stated.

“Mr. President and I are extremely focused on what we need to do. We will focus on critical things, infrastructure and social investments,” he said.
